Title: ARE YOU GETTING ALL YOU SHOULD? - APPROPRIATE LEVELS OF BUS SERVICE. PAPER PRESENTED AT THE AUSTRALASIAN TRANSPORT RESEARCH FORUM; PART 2
Abstract: The paper reviews the framework developed for establishing levels of appropriate bus service in the Sydney Metropolitan Area. The approach considers (and eventually merges) aspects of demand (existing needs of the population) with those of supply (characteristics of commercial bus operations). A novel approach to quantifying appropriate levels of service from the supply side was to examine best industry practice in two sample areas and compare demand with service levels achieved. Service levels were modelled using regression analysis and the model applied to all private bus operations in Sydney to predict appropriate levels of service. The policy implications of this approach are discussed. (Author/TRRL)
